How to Fatten Hogs.

New 1OTk sun.
To fatten hogs, corn at 40 cents per
bnshel is cheaper than wheat at 70
cents. Ii corn is scarce and dear you
should endeavor to get as much pork
out OF it as possible, and not wasteit by
feeding whole or on the ear. The late
George Geddes OF this State, "a farmer
great experience, referring to this mat
ter Of feeding hogs, said: ~ find if l
take ten bushels of corn meal and wet
it in cold water, end feed twenty-five
hogs with it. they eat it well; but if l
take the same quantity and cook it,
it doubles the bulk, and 1T will take
the same number of hogs twice AS long
to eat it up, and l think they fatten
twice as fast in the sameleneth oftime.
BY cooking you double the
bulk and value OF the meal"
Mr., Joseph s~ullivant of
Ohio made many experiments in or.
der to determine the best and most
profitable mode OF iattening hogs with
corn, and he concludes THAI nine
pounds OF pork from a bushel fed on
the ear. twelve pounds from raw meal,
thirteen and q half pounds from boil
ed corn, sixteen and a half pounds
from cooked meal, is no more than u
moderate average which the feeder
may expect to realize from a bushel
OF corn under ordinary circumstances.
All the soft and unripe corn may OF
course be fed to hogs on the ear, but
the sound and dry should be shelled,
ground, and then cooked before feed
ing if you aim at making cheap pork
out OF high priced-grain.

Suueakv Shoes.

The other day acustomer wentinto
a Boston shoestore, and complained
that he had been cheated on a pair OF
low-cut five-dollarshoes. "Cheated?"
asked the proprietor. "Was there

"Ah, well'-the customer shrugged

On being told this story by

what makes shoes squeak, anyway,

Cattle Arriving at Chicago.

Persons read the market reports OF
the number OF cattle and hogs weekly
arriving at Chicago and yet have a
very limited ides of the immensely OF
those herds. The number of cattle
which arrive in that city for the
three weeks ending August Goth was
about 100000 head. Did any one
eve see o drove OF cattle of 1000
head passing along a public thorough.
fare? 1t would have to be, to drive
safely and successfully, divided into
about twenty sections OF fifty head in
each section. Otherwise the cattle
would crowd together, blockade the
roads, break down the bridges and
crowd down the fences along the road.
To drive comfortably aud safely each
section would require at least sixteen
rods. Drovers, however, recon-
mend twenty rods. But at the first
named distance one thousand head
will stretch along the public highway
one mile. AT the same distance apart
the 100000 head named would crowd
one continuous public hishwaytor one
hundred and sixty miles. or from
Council Bluffs to Mitchelville, or from
Des Moines to within fifteen miles of
Davenport, MOI would this fully i'm
press. the mind as to the vastness.
But if you were in your carriage hast
ity vending your way westward and
should meet the head of this column
crowding and surging forward to the
Chicago market and you should be
compelled to sidetrack until the herd
passed, you would haveto wait about
twelve days for the 100000. to wend
their surging and hooking column
past. 10 stand hour after hour, day
after day and week after week ana

Growing Potatoes.

A farmer in Massachusetts gives
the following as the results OF his *
perience in growing potatoes during
several years past:
81. Whole potatoes will produce a
crop a week or ten days earlier than
those which are divided. 2. Small!
whole potatoes will produce results as
good, if not better, than large ones.
3: The seed end is the better one to
plant, because it starts with more
vigor and produces more and larger
potatoes. 4. A large piece is better
on ordinary soil than small pieces or
eyes. 5. Potatoes with sprouts long
enough to break off in planting are
not SO good as those with eyes ad-
vanced Just enough to indicate vigor.
8. The form cannot, as a rule, be
changed by planting any particular
form Z. Two distinct varieties won't
mix in the same hill. s. The more we
investigate the scab the less we know
about it,"

Clothing for the Children.

New York Tribune.
There has been a revolution in
public taste in the past dozen years,
and even ultra.fashionablo people
dress their children in u most sensi.
bic and in simpler styles.
This change is due to the introduction
OF English fashions, which are PREFER
ed by the best dressed people to the
more elaborate French styles. The
influence OF the aesthetic movement
on taste in England has gone far to-
ward making the worst dressed ma
ton under the sun the best dressed
nation and the leader of taste.
Nothing prettier and simple can be
imagined than the little aesthetic
English frocks TO- worn by

attained a perfection of weave that
makes them the first choice for a lit

and golden brown %flannels made up in

white ruche at the neck and sleeves OF
the plain s~hort-waisted round waist
make the prettiest school dress for q
little girl OF eight to ten, and the same
style may be adopted for older and
younger children. Children's dresses
are no longer worn very short, but
reach low enough to cover the knee
well, while little girls OF three and four
years should wear dresses reaching to
their ankles. Black stockings are the
invariable choice and good wooden
hose with double knees may
be purchased as low as fiji

that exhilaration OF spirit that comes

wool should be provided for children
during the winter if their wool mittens
do not extend high over the wrists.
White aprons which completely cover
the dress save flannel dresses from
frequent washing. There is NO great
difficulty in washing good colored
flannel dresses if they are simply
made. They can be laundried in cold
water MS easily as cotton goods can
be washed, but servants can seldom
